• A Stumbling Junky

  The word "Addiction" doesn't even describe it. If you thought that MySpace, Xanga, Chat rooms, or Google was addicting... just sit tight. There is a button, Oh, a magical little button. This little innocent button just so happens to be more addicting than midget porn. I know, I KNOW! "More addicting than midget porn?" *long silence* "How can this be?" you ask. It's called StumbleUpon. You download a toolbar onto your browser, by doing so you are sucked into a whole new world. It is a world of adventure and discovery, a quest for knowledge that you can attain sitting on your butt in a computer chair! Yes, yes, this is my kind of adventure! *snickers*

  This amazing new drug of choice looks like this:
  
  

  You may think that the toolbar above looks harmless.... WELL IT IS NOT! It is not a toy for the weak, nor for those with an addictive personality! This thing should come with a warning!!!

  Warning: StumbleUpon is addictive. People with heart problems should not use StumbleUpon. If chest pains occur and last longer than 30 seconds, stop use immediately. May cause the overuse of words like "awesome," "amazing," "sweet," "cool," "nuh uh," and "no way!"
  
  Side effects may or may not include but is not limited to: Drooling and foaming at the mouth, sleep deprivation, eye strain, palpitations, sudden neglect of reality, and lack of social life.

  What you do is this. Click the little heavenly button that reads "Stumble!" and your off! Clicking that button will load a completely random web page that you had no idea existed. If you like it, click the thumbs up button. If you don't like it, well just give it a thumbs down. Doing this will insure your satisfaction. You see, it "learns." (((spooky))) If you stumble across a site full of odd and bazaar news stories and you click the thumbs up, it learns that odd news is something you enjoy. (who ever invented this was pure genius, genius I tell you!)

  So far I have learned how to make a robot out of a toothbrush, tie a bow with one hand, among many other things. So I had to blog about it. Anywho, look at this cool thing I found on StumbleUpon. vozMe.com. Check it out, it's pretty sweet. *smiles*

  On a different note. My birthday is coming up on New Years Eve, and I fear that I may be dateless. I thought that I could finally get my New Years Eve kiss this year, but unless a single date that happens to be free on New Years Eve arrives, I may be out of luck. Oh well. I could spend New Years Eve at home again... but it's not just New Years Eve, it's my birthday. I want to go out. I think the last time I was actually OUT on my birthday was almost three years ago. I know, pity isn't it? *sigh* We'll see what happens.
